How to Add and Complete a Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Issue Record
Note: A Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Issue Record is a Standalone Record and does not require a Programme to be set up first before it can be created.
The Contamination Control module in Ideagen Safe Food helps you proactively manage and prevent contamination hazards within food production environments.
The Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Issue Record has one workflow stage to be completed. Below are the steps that must be carried out in order to complete Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Issue Report Record. Expand each step below for further explanation.
After creating your Personal Protective Equipment Issue Record, the Issue Details workflow stage will open. The Personal Protective Equipment Issue Record is a one workflow stage Record. Therefore, you will not see any workflows section greyed out. The Personal Protective Equipment Issue Record is simply completed once the Issue Details workflow stage is 'Saved & Submitted'.
